Even if you think you're going to suck, join anyway! I'm pretty bad and I got stomped the first time I played but it's still tons of fun :D

yeah! it's tons of fun to come play in an event like this in a lan setting at a great lan center with great people.

By playing in this you are supporting the local sc2 community and esports as a whole which is so awesome. plus you get to come out for a hella fun day and chill with a BUNCH of sc2/TL nerds and maybe even make friends/practice partners who will support you through whatever you are trying to achieve through sc2 be it moving out of silver league or getting top 200 in north america!

how's that for a motivational post!

56 people? All I can say is I'm glad I will be nice, uncramped, and cozy in my casting area. Now if only we could setup like a 45 degree incline, it would be just like home

Hahaha, who the hell is Firebatgyro? I laughed for like, 20 minutes when I got to your name on the list. Hahahaha, that name is epic, I hope you win this tournament.

Also, Rob, BM not bolding all the top 200 for me. I can't believe I have to work now. UGH.

Also I am so manly that my name is bolded in the rules packet. Aww yeah.

ipp may live on a 45 degree angle but strelok lives completely sideways :+ Show Spoiler +

also on a serious note cheesegrater recommended it and I think its a smart idea to just use MLG maps, they include the most balanced ladder maps (xel naga/metal + a couple other pretty nice even maps like crossfire and iccup testbug which is a really fun 3 player map. (sc2 needs more 3 player maps)

I'm Firebatgyro, I was laddering drunk one night and it just randomly came to me so I name changed immediately.

Pretty sure I'm not going to win since I'm only like 3k masters and my TvT is beyond terrible.

I have been thinking about this as well and thought it perhaps would be a good idea. In a way we would not be changing much except for removing close spawn and building blockers, plus adding more maps. The only thing that has been bothering me to be honest are that these maps are big and most of the players going will most likely be Terran, so we could be in for some long Avilo style games. Either way, MLG maps sound great.

Never, still open now. We allow walk-ins as well. Registering is preferred though!

Plus if you register you get a guaranteed spot and know what matchups to practice.

Will be doing groups today at work (shh don't tell) and have them posted this afternoon.

Rob make a choice on maps. Also at Firebatgyro, practice TvT. We are like baby Russia over here. (BW Joke, like...every good player out of Russia was Terran.

) We always have like...RO16 with 2 zerg, a protoss or two, and the rest terran.
